So there I was one day in the middle of 8th grade and it occurred to me that I have to decide on where to go to high school.
So most people would think in their head: do I want to go to Buena/Ventura or do I want to enter the lottery and try and get into Foothill Technology High school? well thats what most people would do but I had little to no saying in where I went. My mom basically told me that if I didn't get into Foothill that I would go to Buena.
But I didn't really have a problem with that my moms decision for me, my heart was telling me to go to Foothill (my heart also told me to go to Ventura but I knew that would never happen). My heart was telling me that Foothill was a good school to come too because I have a lot of old friends going here and my uncles teach here and it would be fun to have them as teachers one day. My head was telling me to go because it was a great school to go to academically and it would make me smarter and my grades would get better (hopefully).
I didn't do a lot of research about this school but that doesn't mean I didn't do any. I had looked up the school online, heard some friends talking about it, and had read a packet I had gotten about the school.
So now I am here at Foothill and I am loving every bit of it. I am glad my parents sent me here and not Buena/Ventura.
